Hey, David, Josh the Gentile here, I'm back using LJ and I added you (or will in just a second).

Like I said last night, those stories you had to tell me made me very thankful to be a guy. I can't get past your statistical longshot night, that still boggles my mind (1 in 1,000,000? Maybe?).

Happy Passover.

Ectopics are ~2% of all pregnancies, and cornual is then 1-2% of that. So in fact we're talking more like 2-4/10,000. Now, of course, the statistical odds of seeing two on the SAME NIGHT have to still be obscenely ridiculously small.
